Slicer demon

Review by Natalie B. on 22 October 2015

Verified Owner

This slicer demon is what I have been living for since I first ate my friend's signature mandoline-shredded coleslaw with Asian-inspired dressing and crunchy toasted noodles, nuts and seeds . But I digress...
The mandoline is chunkily robust and big enough to get through a lot of cabbage and carrots in record time, slicing the veg into paper-thin little shreds and/or matchsticks. Beautiful Read more

Fun to use & very effective

Review by Lara D. on 3 December 2015

Verified Owner

Having read the previous review, I was a little cautious about the safety side of mandolines, so I chose this one after looking carefully at all the safety specs of this one and its competitors.
I love this machine! It does exactly what it says on the box. Paper thin ribbons of courgette and cucumber, perfect tiny carrot matchsticks, funny waffle cut chips ... all very quick and easy. Loo Read more

Safest one ever

Review by Carol S. on 24 May 2016

Verified Owner

We had an older slicer, which at every opportunity would try and make one finger less.
It also had separate blades you needed to change for different cuts.
Horrible to store away.

The PL8 is so safe, the adjustable blade locks away, as well as everything else.
Easy to store, easy to use. Excellent product

PL8 Professional Mandoline

Review by James C. on 21 August 2017

Verified Owner

Held off purchasing a mandoline as virtually all of them are "fiddly" to work with and have multiple attachments and are often plastic. The PL8 was exactly what I was longing for and I was not disappointed - all attachments are built in, they can be changed with a simple selection button and it folds away for storage. Naturally, it is made of steel and not plastic so it will have a long, if not unending life. Read more

Excellent mandoline

Review by Sarah S. on 26 February 2016

This is an excellent mandoline - and well worth the price. It's easy to use and the blade is sharp so be sure to use the safely feature!
Have been making veggies crisps endlessly - butternut, beetroot & sweet potato - delicious.

Sweet slicer

Review by Peter O. on 18 April 2016

Verified Owner

This is not exactly a "must have" in the kitchen, but it does help when you are in a hurry to julienne some carrots for a ramen, or slice some potatoes for gratin dauphinois. It also makes these really neat crinkle cut potato slices (the first thing I tried after ripping it out of the box).

It is expensive, I know, but compared to cheap ones I've tried before this is worth the pri Read more

Review by Margie W. on 22 October 2016

I was surprised at the size of this mandoline. Larger than I expected. It's super easy to use and I particularly like the fact that I don't have to change the blades. Works like a dream and if one is banting as it makes extremely thin slices of any veg which you can then turn into crisps.

Purchased 2 of these. Gifted 1 to my sister. This product is great. Slices from very thin to thick. Love the thin slices. Attempted making waffle chips. Turned out beautifully after frying them. My guest was impressed and enquired about the slicer – now she’s going to purchase one as well. Tried doing julienne slices with carrots. There is a bit of wastage towards the end as the guard doesn’ Read more

Review by Maresa V. on 11 January 2019

Verified Owner

We bought one for my sister as she regularly manages to cut herself with a knife. I was so impressed and ordered one for myself. It is really safe to operate - the lock mechanism is just slightly finiky - the handle must be in 'usage' mode else it won't lock. Works like a dream. You can still cut yourself if you are not careful so don't let children operate this. Heed the cleaning instructions. Read more

Great product once you get the hang of how to use it correctly

Review by Michal L. on 4 February 2019

Verified Owner

Once you get the hang of it, this is excellent. I use it against the wall, on the counter, securing the handle in my left hand and using my right hand to slice (I am right handed), and slide away from my body. This works well (tried various ways that made a lot of mess).

Review by Louise S. on 2 May 2019

Having previously only used the plastic type with lots of loose blades (not ideal) that usually ended up being relegated to the white elephant drawer never to be used again...that it's not made of plastic and that the blades are fixed was the deciding factor to place an order.
Having used it a couple of times now I can highly recommend this mandoline for home use ..it is easy to use & clean Read more

Blades bent on first use

Review by Lisa S. on 3 December 2019

Verified Owner

I purchased this product which is not cheap, and based on the reviews thought I would spend the money for a good quality, supposedly professional mandolin. On my first use, I decided to make sweet potato chips and the blades bent. I could not believe the poor quality of the blades. Due to the bent blades, I can now not use this product properly. Poor quality!
